Chapter 19: The Walk-Out

The agent crossed the hall in long, hard strides, with two men behind her and a rifle trained on every table.

She stopped four feet from me.

"Livia Montella," she said.

Her voice was flat and professional.

"You were reported dead eleven days ago."

"Reported by the man who put me there," I said.

I nodded at Lucio on the floor.

His eyes were closed.

Blood had run down his arm and soaked the sleeve of his cream suit, and a medic was cutting the hairpin out of his palm.

"This man gave me a letter," the agent said. "He says you are a thief and an informant, and that you are the source of the leaks I've been working for fourteen months."

"Then he lied to you."

"That's a serious thing to say in a room full of witnesses."

"There's a room full of witnesses," I said. "That's why I said it."

I held out my hand.

The captain who had been reading Lucio's phone looked at me, then at the agent, and put it in my palm.

I handed it to her.

"Agent R," I said. "That's the name he saved you under. Read the messages from the top."
